I sometimes wonder
why do I choose to live in Cambodia ? The last few days (weeks) have been so hot, topping 34'C during the daytime, and little cooler at night. My apartment has no air conditioning, just fans and it has been pretty much like living inside a fan assisted oven, role on the rainy season.
This guy has the right idea, stay in the shade and sleep. Only mad dogs and Englishmen go out in the midday sun, so they say (but not this Englishman)
Oh my GOD
my favourite little sidewalk restaurant (TINAT) has closed for the Khmer New Year, where am I going to eat now. Closed for 3 days, suppose I will have to search out a dew other places (man of habit) or loose a few pound.

Khmer New Year
also known as Chol Chnam Thmay.
Held in mid-April, the festival occurs in 3 days (4 days for leap year). Each festival day has a different name:
The first day is named “Moha Songkran” (or Chol sangkran Chmay)
The second day is named “Wanabat” ( or Wonbof)
The third day is named “Tngai Laeung Saka” ( or Lom Sak)
The forth day (only in leap years) is also named Wonbof
In this holiday, people usually visit each other, wish each other fortune, health, prosperity and join many fun games together.
Will nopefully be out getting some pictures from the 14th of April.
